PANS Coach Services

Parents and caregivers of children with PANS/PANDAS and/or tick-borne illness may find themselves: 

- Newly navigating a PANS diagnosis 

- Stuck in cycles of flares, fear, and burnout 

- Needing help building your care team 

- Confused and in need of support 

- Struggling with school, behavior, or family strain 

- Feeling unheard or overwhelmed 

Coaching for caregivers can help you: 

- Understand what’s happening (without information overload) 

- Stay regulated during intense moments 

- Clarify priorities and next steps 

- Advocate confidently for your child 

- Sustain yourself while caring for them 

If you’re seeking PANDAS support or PANS coaching, remember that you are not alone in this journey.

Adults with PANS/PANDAS and/or Tick-borne Illness (Babesia, Bartonella, Lyme) often feel invisible or misunderstood, as PANS doesn't only affect children. For those seeking PANDAS support or PANS coaching, coaching for caregivers can provide essential assistance in navigating these challenges. Coaching support may include: making sense of symptoms and patterns, navigating work, relationships, and daily functioning, reducing shame and self-blame, creating realistic, compassionate strategies for stability, assessing the need for second opinions or different approaches, supporting wellness strategies, and encouraging nervous system awareness. This work is paced, respectful, and grounded in the belief that healing is possible, even after long chronic illness.

Coaching for caregivers is: 

- Practical, goal-oriented support 

- Education and systems-thinking around PANS 

- Emotional containment during a highly stressful journey 

- Help coordinate questions, priorities, and next steps 

- A steady, informed partner walking with you 

Coaching for caregivers is not: 

- Medical diagnosis or treatment 

- Therapy or crisis care 

- A replacement for your child’s medical or mental health team 

I provide PANS coaching that works in parallel with medical and mental health professionals, not in place of them, ensuring you receive the PANDAS support you need.

The hourly consultation is a flexible option that may be used for a wide variety of situations where you want help now. This option is ideal if you: 

- Are early in the PANS journey and asking, 'Is this really PANS?' 

- Need help organizing information, questions, or next steps 

- Want targeted support during a flare or transition 

- Need assistance educating or aligning spouses, extended family members, or school teams 

Our coaching for caregivers provides hourly consultation sessions that can be one-time or intermittent and may include: 

- Parent or caregiver consultations 

- Joint sessions with partners or family members 

- Educational presentations or Q&A sessions for schools or support teams 

These sessions are focused, practical, and designed to meet the specific challenges you face, including PANDAS support and PANS coaching.

This option is ideal if you are dealing with a moderate-to-severe case of PANS/PANDAS, particularly when tick-borne infections are involved or suspected. If you seek ongoing, structured support throughout the arc of illness and healing, this program offers comprehensive coaching for caregivers.

This program includes:

- Weekly 1:1 coaching sessions focused on PANDAS support

- Secure Chat Support between sessions via a HIPAA‑compliant portal

- Personalized access to my proprietary PANS Insiders content

- An initial intake and strategy phase to clarify priorities and stabilize the foundation. Coaching session time may also be utilized for school meetings (e.g., IEP/504) or educational support for friends and family.

While participation is month‑to‑month, I generally recommend at least 3 months of PANS coaching to fully experience the program's value.
